Vestida de Azul Dolls: Nuremberg Toy Fair 2017

Vestida de Azul dolls are charming Spanish dolls with enviable wardrobes and shoe collections to boot! We were delighted to meet up with the Vestida de Azul brand again this year at the Nuremberg Toy Fair to see all the new dolls, clothes and shoes, which are always meticulously made to order at the doll factory in Onil, Alicante, southern Spain.

The colours and textures of the fabric are particularly charming in 2017 and if you haven’t bought a Paulina or a Carlota doll yet, this year should be the year! From large sunhats and cute sandals to plush velour dresses with lace, and black patent boots, there’s something for every season. Vestida de Azul have pulled off traditional look doll dresses and on trend outfits of cropped tops and colourful trousers, all in the same collection. There’s a decadence to this brand that’s hard to define: it’s just Very Vestida.

Very vestida indeed because ‘vestida’ is the Spanish word for clothes. If this brand can be summed up it’s the boutique chic of the clothes that give it its edge.

Look at the shoes, the workmanship fits right in to the Elves and the Shoemaker story! When we think of Spain we probably think of Spanish markets boasting leather shoes and bags – to me this is Spain Vestida de Azul style. Come look at the accessories, they may only be faux leather, but look at the finish!

Now Pedro at Vestida de Azul has been especially kind because normally the clothes are not available to purchase separately in the first year that they are worn by the dolls, but for My Doll Best Friend customers exclusively, you can buy the 2017 doll, or her clothes!

We have a new doll collection to show you from Vestida de Azul, and it’s called Coral. Coral is a 45cm vinyl doll with an articulated head, fixed sparkly eyes and rooted hair. Coral will be available as a blonde or brunette wearing a stunning First Holy Communion dress.

We have also ordered Coral wearing this pretty black floral dress you see:

The photos of all new Vestida de Azul stock taken at the Nuremberg Toy Fair are our in our Gallery and all new dolls will be available on the website by Easter Weekend.
